This subject further develops the clinical knowledge, skills and professional attributes,
as outlined in CBOS (2011). Client centred and evidence-based approaches to the management
of communication difficulties will be explored. Students will develop skills in effective
and responsive communication for clinical purposes. Students will undertake clinical
placement under the supervision and guidance of clinical educators and will have the
opportunity to work directly with paediatric clients with speech and/or language impairments,
activity limitations and participation restrictions. Students will be introduced to
their role in relation to working with people from diverse cultural and linguistic
backgrounds, with literacy difficulties and/or complex communication needs.
Learning Outcomes
- communicate effectively when interacting with and interviewing clients and others,
and when reporting clinical findings verbally and in written format;
- gather background information, select and use assessment approaches, and interpret
results to develop client centred and evidence-based management plans, with guidance;
- apply clinical reasoning in assessment and management decisions with regard to particular
populations;
- reflect on one's own clinical competence with reference to the behavioural descriptors
and exemplars in COMPASS (Generic Professional Competencies 1-4 and CBOS Units 1-4);
- describe and justify appropriate assessment and intervention approaches for multi-modal
communication with respect to current theories and evidence-based practice principles.
